Extract Up to 75,000 LinkedIn Profiles Per Month

LinkedIn scraping exists in a legal gray area. LinkedIn implements anti-scraping measures and blocks scrapers in its Terms of Service. However, the hiQ Labs case (2019) confirmed extracting publicly available data isn't illegal in the US.

Best practices to respect privacy and security:

• Only scrape public data (no login required)
• Respect daily limits to protect your account
• Use data only for legal B2B prospecting
• Implement random delays between requests to avoid anti-scraping detection

Kanbox automatically applies recommended limits and security measures. Our tool minimizes risks while maximizing efficiency. The platform is cloud-based for enhanced protection.

The best LinkedIn scrapers share key characteristics. When evaluating tools, consider:

Technical capabilities:

• LinkedIn scraper API for advanced integrations
• Cloud-based infrastructure (no local browser required)
• Multi-source extraction (profiles, events, posts, job listings)
• Complete workflow automation
• No code implementation (unlike Python with Selenium solutions)

Data quality:

• Automatic duplicate cleaning
• Structured CSV export
• Contact enrichment (email, phone)
• Data collection with validation

Kanbox centralizes these features in one platform. Our software combines scraping, automation, and kanban pipelines. With a 15-day free trial and pricing starting at £15/month, Kanbox offers the best value for LinkedIn profile scraper users.

Limits depend on your account type and usage patterns:

• Free LinkedIn: 80 searches/day, ~1,500 profile views/month
• Sales Navigator: 2,500 exports/month (~83/day)
• Kanbox: Up to 75,000 profiles/month combining:
  • Sales Navigator (2,500/month)
  • Standard searches (2,400/month)
  • Event attendees (unlimited)
  • Post contributors (unlimited)
  • Profile URL imports (500 per operation)

Kanbox automatically respects limits and distributes scraping to protect your account.

Yes. Extract up to 2,500 profiles/month from Sales Navigator searches with advanced filters.

The Kanbox Chrome extension integrates directly and extracts:

• Name, job title, company
• Location, LinkedIn profile URL
• Headline, summary (if public)

How it works:

1. Perform Sales Navigator search with filters
2. Click Kanbox button
3. Automatic extraction processes all visible profiles
4. Download cleaned CSV

Exports are automatically cleaned with duplicate removal and standardized formatting.

Kanbox applies automatic deduplication based on LinkedIn profile URL (unique identifier). When scraping from multiple sources, Kanbox detects existing profiles and exports them only once.

Process:

• URL-based identification for each profile
• Real-time detection during extraction
• Intelligent merging from multiple sources
• Keeps most complete version with all data

Result: Clean CSV files with zero duplicates, ready to use immediately.

Yes. Kanbox automatically extracts attendees from LinkedIn events (webinars, conferences, meetups).

Extracted data:

• Names, job titles, companies
• Locations, profile URLs
• Attendance status

Why scrape events?

Event participants are warm leads—they showed interest in your topic. Response rates are 3-5x higher than cold outreach.

Works for all event types. Extraction takes seconds regardless of size (50 to 5,000+ attendees).

Kanbox extracts public data from LinkedIn profiles, respecting privacy settings:

Profile information:

• Name, job title, company
• Work experience, education
• Skills, certifications
• LinkedIn URL (unique identifier)

Contact data (if public or enriched):

• Professional email
• Phone number
• Website, social links

LinkedIn profile data is exported in structured CSV, ready to import into your CRM or prospecting tool.

Yes. Kanbox works with free, Premium, or Sales Navigator accounts.

Without Sales Navigator:

• 80 searches/day for profile extraction
• Extract connections (1st, 2nd, 3rd degree)
• Event attendees (unlimited)
• Post contributors (unlimited)
• URL imports (500 per operation)

With Sales Navigator:

• 2,500 profiles/month with advanced filters
• Advanced search capabilities
• Enhanced data visibility

Kanbox automatically adapts to your account type.

LinkedIn blocks scrapers aggressively. To avoid getting blocked:

Technical methods:

• Use a browser-based tool instead of Python scripts
• Implement random delays between actions
• Respect daily and monthly limits
• Avoid running multiple scraping sessions simultaneously

Security practices:

• Run scraping during business hours
• Don't scrape all day continuously
• Respect LinkedIn's Terms of Service

Recommended approach: Use a cloud-based platform like Kanbox that implements all these protection measures automatically.

Yes. LinkedIn scraping is highly effective for recruitment.

Recruitment workflows:

• Scrape candidates with specific skills
• Extract people from competitor companies
• Build talent pools for future openings
• Track growth of talent in emerging fields

Advantages for recruiters:

• Efficiency: Scrape hundreds of candidates in minutes
• Data quality: Structured data ready for your ATS
• Passive candidates: Access people not actively job searching

Best practices: Respect candidate privacy, use data only for legitimate recruitment, comply with GDPR.

LinkedIn doesn't display professional emails directly on profiles. To get emails from LinkedIn profiles, you need a data enrichment tool.

How it works with Kanbox:

1. Scrape profiles: Extract profiles from Sales Navigator, events, or posts
2. Automatic enrichment: Kanbox searches for the professional email associated with each profile
3. SMTP verification: Emails are validated in real-time to ensure deliverability
4. Complete export: Download CSV with profile + verified email

Discovery rates:

• 60-80% of B2B profiles have a findable email
• 98% accuracy thanks to SMTP verification
• Professional emails only (no Gmail/Yahoo)

Pricing: Email enrichment is included in Kanbox plans. You only pay for emails found and verified, not for searches with no results.

Unlike tools like Hunter or Dropcontact that charge separately, Kanbox combines scraping + enrichment in a single platform.

Yes, several free options exist, but they have significant limitations:

Free options:

• Free Chrome extensions: Instant Data Scraper, Data Miner — limited volume and risky for your LinkedIn account
• Python/Selenium scripts: Require technical skills and are easily detected by LinkedIn
• Free trials: Phantombuster (14 days), Kanbox (15 days) — full features during trial period

Limitations of free tools:

• Very limited volume (50-100 profiles/day maximum)
• No automatic deduplication
• High risk of LinkedIn account suspension
• No email enrichment included
• No customer support if issues arise

Our recommendation:

Try Kanbox free for 15 days with all features. You can scrape up to 2,500 Sales Navigator profiles, unlimited event attendees, and unlimited post contributors. No credit card required.

After the trial, plans start at £15/month — much cheaper than hours lost copy-pasting manually or recovering a blocked LinkedIn account.
